Jayapura, 27/2 (Jubi) – The head of the Education Department of Jayapura City, Robert J Betaubun, anyone who finds cases of deductions in teachers’ certification funds to come forward.

He said the designated bank would transfer the funds directly to the teachers’ bank accounts, so if there is a deduction the percentage will be in accordance with regulations.
“If our officials did it in purpose, we will take a legal action, because it is related to the transparency and the accountability of the Education Department,” he said.
